OK, I bit the bullet. After watching the Mercedes Source and Jay Leno video's, I bought a set of Coco Mats for my 1983 300d. Pricey ($200) compared to Walmart type mats - but, I am a happy camper and glad I bought them. They will last longer than me or the car, they lay flat, look good, and don't shed crap. Take a look at their website (www.cocomats.com) where they have the 2 viseos linked (from Leno and Bergsma). And, the guy that makes them in North Carolina drives a 300d diesel. I am happy enough that I will buy another set for my wifes 300d as soon as I save up some more pennies.
There are 4 or 5 cosmetic things I have spent money on over the years (steering wheel cover, dash mat cover, powder coated rims, Ikea sheepskins, and now cocomats). These are things that give pleasure when I drive, and are worth the $$ over the long haul because you can enloy them every time you crawl behind the wheel and crank the engine.
